AUGUST to SEPTEMBER
09 Wolfson Research Exchange newsletter Welcome to the summer edition of the Research Exchange newsletter. To keep our cognitive faculties as sharp as ever even though everybody else seems to be lazing about in the Sun over long summer days, we have come up with a ten‐question quiz on our website this summer! You can participate on your own or join strengths with your mates (aka research collaborators) and take part as a team of up to five people. The prize will be a generous buffet lunch for five in the Research Exchange. Come on then, see if you are equal to the challenge!! Who said something about free lunches by the way?
The Research Exchange Summer Challenge

Follow this to start the quiz... The closing date for all entries is Monday September the 14th at 12 noon and the winning entry will be that with the most correct answers or will be chosen at random from any multiple entries that score equally well. The winner will be contacted by Friday the 25th of September. Need Help? Feel free to explore the Research Exchange and Library webpages, past newsletter issues and even ask our advisor team for assistance!
